More than 50% of the species on earth went extinct because of humans. So are humans as a whole , evil?

You cannot make a comment saying that someone else is cutting those forests and destroying the soil. You still take the blame because you're part of humanity.

If an alien species invaded our planet and decided to study humans , they can ultimately conclude that we are evil just by looking at the amount of damage we did.

But do we feel evil? Are we evil? No we don't because we aren't trying to destroy other species out of pure hate. We do it because of our own selfish reasons - whether it be greed or progress .

So is evil justifiable if your intentions aren't evil in the first place?


Ultimately all of this poses a greater question. What is good and what is evil? How do you define them?

I think you meant there are predictions that up to 50% of species could be lost by the end of the century unless action is taken. The point is still valid though. Good vs. Evil is too big a topic but I do know that there are things associated with evil that aren't predicated by hate.
